More: SiPCore, Inc. Licenses Mixed-Signal Data-Conversion Cores to LSI Logic Highly Manufacturable, Mixed-Signal Macrocell Intellectual Property From SiPCore Enables Fast Integration Into Deep Submicron Silicon Processes To Save ASIC Companies Design and Development Time SAN JOSE, Calif., Dec. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- SiPCore, Inc., today, announced that LSI Logic Corp. (NYSE: LSI - news) will license several high-performance, data conversion mixed-signal cores from SiPCore. These Cores will expand LSI Logic's existing library of more than 40-mixed-signal cores used in the design of system on a chip application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) and standard products targeting computer, consumer, and communications applications. ''We are pleased to work with SiPCore to enhance our extensive industry-leading portfolio of mixed-signal functions focused on data conversion, data transport, and signal processing. Demand for mixed-signal ASICs and standard products is growing rapidly and LSI Logic remains committed to supplying a complete library of high performance mixed-signal cores and related ASIC design methodologies. It is our intent to speed the development of system on a chip ASICs and help our customers get their products to market faster,'' said Greer Person, manager, Mixed-Signal Products Marketing for LSI Logic. ''These SiPCore data converters augment LSI Logic's internal mixed- signal capability, and permit LSI Logic to add new functions more rapidly by using intellectual property developed by highly qualified vendors.'' ''SiPCore is pleased to further enhance LSI Logic's 'system on a chip' capabilities with the seamless integration of very high speed, low-power analog cells,'' stated Lee Stoian, President and CEO of SiPCore, Inc. ''We rely on proprietary techniques and architectures, plus proven design methodologies to create high-performance, highly manufacturable mixed-signal macrocells for standard deep-submicron CMOS processes. Our IP cores are delivered along with a complete design package to enable fast and reliable integration, as well as the support required to ensure ease-of-use and high yield for the end products, while providing LSI Logic with cost effective solutions and short time to market,'' he added.
